PIC: Rihanna Becomes "Gangsta Gothic Geisha" for New Video

Rihanna, who's currently shooting the video for her latest track "Princess of China," posted a photo of herself dressed in an anything-but-traditional Asian outfit on Twitter with the caption: "Gangsta goth geisha #thuglife #princessofchina."

The pop star, 24, sports extreme black eyeliner, thin penciled eyebrows, bold red lips and an architectural updo adorned with chopsticks. In one pic she shows off her extra-long gold nails while sticking up her middle finger and glaring at the camera.

The new tune, which was released on Valentine's Day, features the band Coldplay, who will also appear in the video.

Rihanna recently made a permanent addition -- a cross tattoo on her collarbone -- to her look.

"She loved it," Bang Bang, the NYC tattoo artist responsible for most of Rihanna's ink including the "Shhh" tattoo on her finger, tells Us Weekly. "She always flips out [when it's done] and jumps up and down like a 16-year-old girl getting her first car."
